Vibe Coding for Accountants: Everything You Need to Know
Overview
In this practical webinar, Dr. Gregory Saxton introduces “vibe coding”—the emerging practice of using generative AI to build working scripts, tools, and workflows through natural-language prompts rather than traditional programming. Designed for CPAs and finance professionals, the session shows how practitioners can use AI to prototype data-cleaning routines, automate repetitive analyses, create custom audit and reporting tools, and adapt code without formal software training.
Participants will learn how to translate accounting problems into effective prompts, iteratively refine AI-generated code, evaluate reliability and risks, and establish appropriate governance and documentation practices. The session emphasizes when vibe coding can meaningfully improve productivity—and when professional judgment, testing, and controls remain essential.
Use cases include data validation, variance analysis, reconciliations, custom analytics pipelines, regulatory reporting support, and internal decision tools. No prior programming experience is required.
Webinar participants will receive an official verified confirmation of participation after the webinar that can be used toward CPA professional development requirements.
